REELlNG-IVIACHINE FOR PAPER ORpOTHER FABRICS.

SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent N o. 570,355, dated October 27, 1896. Application filed January 15 1896. Serial No. 575,639. (No model.)

To al?, whom, t r11/tty concern:

Be it known that I, WILLIAM l-I. WALDRON, of New Brunswick, in the county of Middlesex and State of New Jersey, havel invented a new and Improved Reeling-Machine for Paper or other Fabrics, of which the following is a full, clear, and exact description.

The invention relates to machines for winding paper and other fabrics, such, for instance, as shown in the Letters Patent of the United States, No. 363,024, granted to John Waldron on May 17, 1887.

The object of my invention is to provide a new and improved reeling-machine for paper and other fabrics, and arranged to automatically correct any uneven winding caused by the length of the sides or selvage of the paper or fabric to be reeled.

The inventionconsists principally of a winding-roll or core adapted to wind up the fabric and mounted for oblique adjustment relatively to the driving-roll.

The invention also consists of certain parts and details and combinations of the same, as will be fully described hereinafter and then pointed out in the claim.

Reference is to be had to the accompanying` drawings, forming a part of this speciiication, in which similar characters of reference indicate corresponding parts in all the figures.

Figure l is a sectional side elevation of the improvement on the line l l of Fig. 2. Fig. 2 is au end elevation of the same. Fig. 3 is an enlarged sectional plan view of the eccentric bearing for the winding-roll, and Fig. 4 is a side elevation of the same.

The improved reeling-machine is provided with a suitably constructed frame A, in which is journaled in suitable bearings a driving-roll B, connected with other machinery for imparting a rotary motion to the said driving-roll, so as to rotate Athe winding-roll C, arranged directly above the driving-roll, and on which the paper or other fabric is wound. The winding-roll or core C is journaled at one end in a bearing D, fitted to slide vertically in the slotted standard A' of the frame A, the other end of said core or winding-roll being journaled in a bearing D', liketion of the bearing D', I provide the latter with a suitable handle D2 under the control of the operator, to enable the latter to change the position of the Winding-roll relatively to the driving-roll whenever desired. It is understood that as the bearings D D are free to slide vertically any adjustment of the eccentrically-Inounted end C of the windingroll does not affect the horizontal position of the roll, but the axis of the windingroll stands obliquelyin a horizontal direction relatively to the vertical plane passing through the axis of the driving-roll B. It is understood that this movement in a horizontal direction of the winding-roll C is permissible, owing to the journal of the roll C in the bearing D, it being sufficiently loose for the purpose. The winding-roll Gis weighted in the usual manner by a weight E, connected by rods E with saddles E2 on the said windingroll.

Having thus fully described my invention, I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent-e In a reeling-machine, the combination with a drivin g-roll, of a winding-roll, sliding bearings in which said winding-roll is journaled to move toward and from the drivin g-roll, one of the bearings receiving the journal of the winding-roll eccentrically, and means for turning said bearing for shifting said end of the winding-roll transversely to the direction of the slideways, substantially as described.
